MyCorp employees, “What are you most thankful for?”

Did you know saying what you’re thankful for is scientifically proven to be good for you? Saying aloud or writing down the things in your life that you’re grateful for boosts endorphins and improves your mood. So if you’re family’s like mine and likes to go around the table and say what we’re thankful for before eating, know that, although you’re starving, you’ll at least soon be eating with a smile on your face.

We asked our MyCorp family what they’re thankful for this year. Here’s what they had to say…

“I am thankful for my coworkers who make me laugh every single day that I come to work!” -Becky Sherwin

“Better health this year than last year… I’m thankful for good health!” -Cindi Sokoloff

“My JOB!!! And Debbie’s display of dance moves when she passes out paychecks!” -Brenda Gordon

“This year, I’m thankful for family and friends, my full-time job at MyCorp and my freelance writing, rideshares like Lyft that get me everywhere I need to be, tacos, and obsessing over Game of Thrones and the Netflix Gilmore Girls revival.” -Heather Taylor

“I am thankful for new opportunities, family, friends and friends that are family.” -Yvonne Teagardin

“Every day I am endlessly thankful for my family. They are the best part of living.” -Kelsey Goeres

“I’m thankful for awesome family and friends, including my wonderful colleagues.  It is the people with whom you surround yourself who often make you who you are and influence your outlook on life.  I feel so fortunate to have such great people in my life!  They make each day a blessing, truly!” -Deborah Sweeney

Happy holiday, entrepreneurs!
